New, that's me.
 
Hi I'm Zak and I am new here... yeah. I'm not going to be the only guy around here am I? Seems to be a problem with forums. =p

Um... let's see. I'm 23 and majoring in Biology. I live in Seward's Icebox (aka Alaska). I like the outdoors, and reading, and playing tabletop RPGs. Um, shoot?

rampagerose 07-23-2009 02:08 AM

I like your ears. Welcome to the forum. I'm 22 in two weeks and I'm a professional bum. :)

Hatake Ayumi 07-23-2009 02:09 AM

YO~!
And I know at least... 3 guys on here.
=)
So you aren't entirely alone. But yes, communities like this do tend to be dominated by females.

AH, Biology. How I loved that class. Up until the pig. But that was ok still. How's the weather up there? And is Seward's Icebox a common name for Alaska? Never heard of it before.

Anyways, I'll shoot.
WELCOME!!! Nice to see you. Read the rules, feel free to ask me any questions you might have that pop into your head. Hope you have a great time here, can't wait to see you around the forums.
=)

Goblin Maiden 07-23-2009 02:15 AM

Hey there! ^__^ Biology, huh? I liked HS biology. Are you majoring for research, pre-med, etc?

ZaK.86 07-23-2009 02:39 AM

@rampagerose ;; Thanks. I liked them quite a bit too. =p

@Hatake Ayumi ;; Awesome. =D I don't really mind being out numbered though, it comes with the actually being interested in talking I guess. Seward's Icebox is somewhat common, if you're a nerd who paid attention in Alaska Studies (we have to take it, blah). It was a nickname that the state got when Seward bought it from the Russians. That and Seward's Folly. The weather here is pretty blah right now. We've had clouds and rain for the past week, but before that it was about eighty.

@Goblin Maiden ;; I want to be a wildlife biologist actually. So research. I plan on living in the middle of no where with just my laptop as often as possible. =p

Hatake Ayumi 07-23-2009 02:41 AM

Oh, because I don't remember it being called that in my classes. Just talked about Seward's Folly and, of course, Dear Mr. Seward.
=)
And did I just read EIGHTY? Wow. That was unexpected.

Izumi 07-23-2009 02:41 AM

Welcome to Menewsha! :)

It's not so bad being outnumbered by girls, though, Hata! ;)

It's also nice to see there's another 20+ joining too. I love how varied the community when it comes to things like that.

Hatake Ayumi 07-23-2009 02:42 AM

Bah. Females.
:illgetu:
Though some of that gender are... bearable.
=)
Some are just unreasonable.

Goblin Maiden 07-23-2009 02:45 AM

Bah. Males! XD

And that sounds awesome, Zak. I wish you luck with wildlife researching! =D

Izumi 07-23-2009 02:48 AM

Hata. You know you love a little estrogen in your life!! ;)

Hatake Ayumi 07-23-2009 02:53 AM

Bah, testosterone.

I already have enough estrogen in my life thank you very much.

ZaK.86 07-23-2009 03:09 AM

Yup. Eighty. It felt rather like a million though. =p

Girls are good for the most part. *blatant sucking up* Lol, no I have a couple of good female friends, but I have to say that I couldn't live without gaming night with the boys.

Hatake Ayumi 07-23-2009 03:14 AM

Cripes. It was 82 degrees here and I was sweating my skin off... Question: Is that the USUAL summer weather?

Oh, you can't HONESTLY say that a female's attraction to drama and cat fights and mood swings are amazing to experience.
;D

I kid, I kid. Though what would the world come to without some down to earth people.

Iro 07-23-2009 03:17 AM

Welcome to Menewsha, Zak!

You're definitely not the only guy here, that's for sure.
Although there are male users here who prefer using female avatars and vice versa. So don't judge by avatar genders alone, you never know. :lol:

I'm never all that good in science subjects. My best was Physics, but I am a total failure in Biology. I'm more a Math and language person. xD

ZaK.86 07-23-2009 03:22 AM

The mood swings and cat fights make me run and hide. =p

Thanks for the welcome Iroase! I was terrible at Physics in high school. >.< I'm avoiding it like the plague now.

Hatake Ayumi 07-23-2009 03:23 AM

....
Oh great. I'm looking forward to physics next year then...
= ______ =;

ZaK.86 07-23-2009 03:39 AM

I think I was somewhat overloaded. That was the year that I took Chemistry too. Plus honors English and History. x.x

Hatake Ayumi 07-23-2009 12:01 PM

Ah. I'm taking AP English, Honors Physics, Mandarin, Gifted Social studies, Honors Business Law and Honors Analysis.
Yay me...

Sleipnir0815 07-23-2009 12:52 PM

I'm male, too! :lol: You're not alone :XP

wish 07-23-2009 12:58 PM

welcome!

i don't know much about alaska, but i just watched Earth. >___>; not sure how that has ANYTHING to do with alaska, but just thought i'd inform you. .-.

fiarra 07-24-2009 12:53 AM

Welcome Zak!

Woo another bio person. :) I graduated with a BS in ecology and I'm off for my Ph.D in bio in the fall now. I wanna do more marine ecology work rather than straight wildlife though. I'd love to visit Alaska sometime. I know someone who went and the pictures were amazing.

Have fun!

ZaK.86 07-26-2009 04:54 AM

@Hatake Ayumi Wow, your high school offers Mandarin? That's pretty cool.

@Sleipnir0815 Yay!

@wish I really want to see that... is it any good?

@fiarra It's easy to forget that you live in such a beautiful place when you're here all of the time. =p

star2000shadow 07-26-2009 07:49 AM

I'd be unreasonable. XD.. Im stubborn and bull headed and playing tag with a friend through the forums.. hmm wonde rif he'll find me here or gone by the time he gets here.. hehe.. umm lets see.. Never even HEARD of Alaska by any other name..thena gain I didn't get into My Social Studys and my SC Teacher did let me get away with murder.. I was always ahead of hte class so i spent most of the tim eonline..working on OTHER homework 'sigh' i hate homework. so glad to be outa school and Im 26 though dun expect me to act it.. ever.. XD.. Im a kid at heart and will alwasy be 'i aint ever growing up'

CK 07-26-2009 08:45 AM

XD Nah - hardly the only male here (as has been said a lot by now >_> ), though it feels like it sometimes, depending on where you post. XD

The site's owner (Insomniac) is a guy, so are a few of the people on staff (though since many of even the staff use an opposite-gender avatar, it'd be hard to tell without looking at their posts), several former-staff-current-users... Both of our former owners were male, come to think of it. And then scattered around the masses are guys of varying types of masculinity. XD

I mostly just wanted to say that because I didn't want you to feel from the responses that your fellow male was quite as scarce as it seems at first. XD

Welcome to Menewsha. :3

DariaMorgendorfer 07-26-2009 09:45 AM

Hi Zak, welcome to Menewsha:)

I would like to challenge the idea that only females cause catfights and have moodswings;) I KNOW I have seen males do that too...I'm just saying:)

I admit I liked bio, but personally am a total anatomy/physiology and neurology geek!
